I loved the first one, so I cannot wait for "The Rats of Us Part II: Ratapalooza". Saw the trailer for the gameplay yesterday and it looks like quite the improvement over the first one.
If you like CRPGS don't sleep on this game, it is AMAZING. Quite an improvement over the first one. I sunk 190h doing absolutely every quest and going through any cranny on my PC. Also it has a stellar soundtrack, please listen to this theme: https://youtu.be/uITaghKWMMM
Don't know if I can share links here, but if it gets removed by any of the PS guys, please let me know so that I may share the title of the theme.
At least the gameplay still looks stellar, but yeah the dialogue's been bad since the first trailer. Now, thanks to Sacred Symbols, every time I see a trailer for this game I hear Chris going "Did I just mooove that with my freakin' miiiiind?!"
Still baffles me that they put a card system into the game instead of just the skills that you unlock. Are they trying to sell card packs for real money?
If you're on the fence with Yakuza 7 due to being the...well....7th entry in the series, please take the dive. Not only it has a new cast and story (even though they'll mention some prior events) it is balls to the wall zany and fun. It is also one of the best JRPGS you can play on the PS4/5.
@themightyant Oh yes, I see it as a positive as well. If it's not going the direction they want, just nip it, but I'm terribly curious, I mean they outright sacked 2 of the top creatives on the team.
@Bagwag82 CRPG is a term used to describe "Computer RPGs", it is mainly used for isometric rpgs made to look like the old Infinity engine RPGS (Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Torment).
This is an excelent game and has an epic OST. Please check the Mythic Power track, played by the Baltic Symphony Orchestra and you'll see what I mean. Absolute banger.
@PoeticJustice Right on the nose mate, I agree with all the fields you posted. The games are too big and the story feels bloated and unfocused, Valhalla is the worst of them on that front. Also, not using one character, while it still being a character kinda robs the narrative of it's focus (in my opinion). I prefer that they just give us an established character.
Regarding the setting, I would actually like to have one in Lisboa, we could go back to proper assassins vs templars, and even though Rogue starts there, it was far too short of a segment.
Don't really care. it's a JRPG so Japanese it is for me. Good that people that like dubs will enjoy this I guess, at least it won't sound like a bunch of constipated dudes speaking which is usually what happens when they dub rpgs, never understood why.
I love the Souls games, and souls-likes (if done well), but please leave that style of combat outside of established and loved series (and this is from a non-fan of Ys). Seems like everyone is chasing the high, especially after Elden Ring.
There's only 10 minutes in tomorrow's presentation. They're going to annouce a Crisis Core remaster that has barely been touched and costs 40€ and that's it.
Worried about this one. Looked really promissing but all these delays....it went from a must buy to I'll wait a couple of weeks until other people have tested it
That image screams BR with the city burning around them. Neal saying that there was a story and new characters for the MP game actually left me intrigued.

Re: Devolver Debunks Ludicrous Rumour Claiming Sony Paid to Keep Cult of the Lamb Off Xbox Game Pass
Gary should just work on improving the horsedung that is Forspoken's dialogue and stop spreading these rumors.
Re: Soul Hackers 2 (PS5) - SMT on a Budget
So it is basically what it seems from the trailers, a cheaper version of Persona.
I'll be waiting for a discount for this one.
Re: Poll: Will Sony Host a PlayStation Showcase Next Month?
Nop, not happening.

Re: Captain Marvel's Playstyle Is Geared Towards Punishing Counters in Marvel's Midnight Suns
Still baffles me that they put a card system into the game instead of just the skills that you unlock. Are they trying to sell card packs for real money?
Re: Drill Down into Made in Abyss with This Game Overview Trailer
@denpanosekai that's pretty awesome, still remember being floored when Hanezeve Caradhina starts playing at the start of the series
Re: Rumour: Reliable Leaker Teases the Return of Alone in the Dark
They're clearly teasing an Iron Maiden game.
Re: Marvel's Midnight Suns Delay Could Mean a 2023 Release Date on PS5, Later on PS4
I wonder if they're removing the card system.
Re: Granblue Fantasy Relink Development Going Well Ahead of Action RPG's 2023 Release
I've been hearing/reading that "Relink is now "at the peak of development"." since 2018.

Meanwhile I'm just sitting here waiting for that Black Myth Wukong game....
Re: Thirsty Suitors Brings Messy Relationships and Sick Skateboarding Tricks to PS5, PS4
for some reason I saw the trailer and thought "Twitter: The Game"
Re: Defy the Wrath of the Gods in Lost Epic, Available Now on PS5, PS4
@Northern_munkey It's available on Steam though, so maybe it will be added to the store later today. Costs 20.99€.
Re: Rumour: Star Wars: KOTOR Remake Hit with Huge Delay

Re: Rumour: Star Wars: KOTOR Remake Hit with Huge Delay
Can you just imagine how bad that demo had to be?!
Re: Final Fantasy 10 Series Blitzes Past 20 Million Units Sold
For me it is the best Final Fantasy game and it's one of my top 5 games, I love it.
Re: Very First Look at Yakuza: Like a Dragon Sequel Surfaces
"Yakuza: Like a Dragon 2", god I hate that name.
Re: Sony to Abandon One-to-One PlayStation Support on Twitter
Was this ever active? At least in Portugal, Playstation has one of the worst costumer support I've ever seen.
Re: PS Plus Extra, Premium Get Free 7-Day Trial
1 - Get this tomorrow
2 - Play Stray
3 - ?????
Re: Check Out These Operator Skins Ikumi Nakamura Designed for Rainbow Six: Siege
They look pretty good.
She also did some yokai inspired ones last year I believe, or two years ago that looked awesome.

Re: Rob From the Rich to Arm Yourself in Gangs of Sherwood, Just Announced for 2023 Launch
"Was the classic 1993 film Robin Hood: Men in Tights as awesome as we remember?" - 100%
Re: Frenetic FPS Bright Memory: Infinite Speeds Its Way Onto PS5, July 21st
The game is pretty but I wouldn't pay more than 5€ to play it. It's extremly short and doesn't have much content.
Re: PS5's Forspoken Release Date Delayed Until 24th January, 2023
@Gloamin FF16 is scheduled for Summer 2023
Re: PS5's Forspoken Release Date Delayed Until 24th January, 2023
Makes complete sense. It was sandwiched between TLOU remake and GoW. I don't mind waiting 2 more months.
Re: The Chant Story Trailer Reveals a Cult Gone Wrong
@LiamCroft That sounds like something who's at the top of the cult hierarchy would say.
The trailer looks quite interesting. I think I'll take a gander on this one when it drops to a price more to my liking.
Re: Star Ocean: The Divine Force Locks October Release Date on PS5, PS4
Game seems fine but the character designs creep me out so much
Re: Return to Monkey Island with a New Look, But Not on PS5, PS4 Just Yet
Not feeling the art style. Would prefer that they used something more akin to Curse of Monkey island.
Re: Final Fantasy 16's English Cast Will Speak with British English Accents, Not American
Don't really care. it's a JRPG so Japanese it is for me. Good that people that like dubs will enjoy this I guess, at least it won't sound like a bunch of constipated dudes speaking which is usually what happens when they dub rpgs, never understood why.
Re: Dreadout 2 Is an Atmospheric Horror Game Coming to PS5, PS4 on July 20th
Trailer seems alright, about as janky as Fatal Frame. Liked the djent soundtrack
Re: Next Ys Game Teased with Artwork, May Have Soulslike Elements
I love the Souls games, and souls-likes (if done well), but please leave that style of combat outside of established and loved series (and this is from a non-fan of Ys).
Seems like everyone is chasing the high, especially after Elden Ring.
Re: Soul Hackers 2 Reveals English Voice Cast in New Trailer
Yeah..nah....
I'll stick with the original cast, thanks. Glad this is there for whomever likes it.
Re: The Last of Us: Part I's Out of Stock PS5 Firefly Edition Fetching $450 on eBay
Is this limited? Thought this would be the standard collector's edition and whatnot
Re: Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Is Remake 2, PS5 Exclusive, Out Winter 2023
@get2sammyb He's already working in pre-production for part 3.
Also, what a pleasant surprise, didn't think they would show this.
Re: Some Fans Think PSP's Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Is Getting a PS5, PS4 Remaster
There's only 10 minutes in tomorrow's presentation.
They're going to annouce a Crisis Core remaster that has barely been touched and costs 40€ and that's it.
Re: Assassin's Creed Special Event Will Reveal Franchise's Future in September
These teasers for teases starts to get annoying. Capcom did the same with Dragon's Dogma.
Re: Psychological Horror Title Luto Aims to Give You Fresh Nightmares on PS5, PS4 in 2022
Another hide and seek horror game.....(sigh)
Re: No, Kojima Productions Isn't Ditching PlayStation in Favour of Xbox
The fact that they had to tweet this is simply stupid.
Worse, I think it's stoopid.
Re: Rumour: More Persona Games Could Be Coming to Consoles
Told you it was a Gamepass announcement.
Re: Rumour: More Persona Games Could Be Coming to Consoles
Probably teasing an announcement of them coming to Gamepass.
Re: Rapid, Rainy FPS Bright Memory: Infinite Pulls Trigger on PS5 Port
I tried it on PC. Incredibly beautiful, but it is nothing more than a glorified demo, it's really really short.
Re: Fantastic Looking PS5, PS4 RPG Granblue Fantasy: Relink Delayed Again to 2023
Worried about this one. Looked really promissing but all these delays....it went from a must buy to I'll wait a couple of weeks until other people have tested it
Re: Gallery: Spot the Difference in The Last of Us: Part I PS5 Screenshots
@Bismarck I would bet we'll see TloU2 on the PC early next year or something.
edit: a word
Re: Goat Simulator 3 Skips Straight to the Threequel on PS5 This Fall
I laughed my ass off when they revealed the title, that humor is right up my alley.
Re: Bloober Team's Layers of Fears Announced, Coming to PS5 in 2023
Anything to keep them from touching Silent Hill xD
